Argenx (ARGX) announced the acquisition of Forte Biosciences (FBRX) at $77 per share on July 27.
FBRX saw significant price movement beginning June 29, weeks before the public announcement.
Both FBRX and ARGX exhibited notable trading activity ahead of the deal, suggesting possible insider knowledge influencing price action.
This case exemplifies how pre-announcement trading patterns can signal forthcoming M&A activity, offering educational insight into market behavior.
Author's Note: Today's Chart of the Day is for educational purposes only. I want to illustrate that before any M&A is announced to the public, you will sometimes see an individual who has insider information acting on it.
